yāṅra āge brahmānanda tṛṇa-prāya haya
yāṅra āge brahmānanda tṛṇa-prāya haya
SYNONYMS
ittham-bhūta-śabdera artha—the meaning or import of the word ittham-bhūta; pūrṇa-ānanda-maya—full of transcendental bliss; yāṅra āge—in front of which; brahma-ānanda—the transcendental bliss derived from impersonalism; tṛṇa-prāya—just like straw; haya—is.
TRANSLATION
"The word ittham-bhūta is transcendentally exalted because it means 'full of transcendental bliss.' Before this transcendental bliss, the bliss derived from merging into the existence of the Absolute [brahmānanda] becomes like a piece of straw in comparison.
